It is possible, but I don't think so. Spurrier is ranking QBs day to day. Noso had a bad day at practice passing. That is why he is ranked last yesterday.

OTH, in the interview, Spurrier said Noso is probably going to be his "running quarterback." I think that translates into some PT for Noso. He is superior in that skill, and would be effective with our OL especially near the goal.

This is the way I took it.

Someone asked him about releasing a "weekly depth chart at QB". So I'd expect if Noso had a better week throwing next week he could jump back in the mix.

Connor Mitch and Noso are not that far apart with their overall performance.
Mitch has much better mechanics and "pocket Presence" than Brendan
but if there's a distinction between them right now it's very thin.

I'm still convinced that Connor Mitch is the future of the offense. He's
the better passer and I think eventually will be the better general to run
the offense. IMO, switching Noso and Connor wouldn't be that big a difference
on the depth chart this spring. This could also be Spurrier playing games
with them. .. Building up Connor's ego, while lighting a fire under Noso to
push himself a little more. Right now they are neck and neck, but the big
issue is "THERE'S A WIDE GAP BETWEEN THOSE TWO AND DYLAN" .. Not
a good situation if it were Late August.

Perry Orth is just a steady, nothing flashy, good solid QB who reminds
me of Dylan Thompson as a freshman. When you first saw him, you'd
think "He'll make a good holder for our field goal kicker". ... Then the following
year, his mechanics were a little better, little more "Zip" on his throws, and
better footwork. THEN ... he exploded.

Orth has a strong arm, and good footwork. He's not the most accurate
passer, but he hasn't thrown any picks and when he finds a guy open,
he gets it there quick. Not a Connor Shaw, but can move a little bit
when the pressure is on him and create more time with his mobility.

I can see why Spurrier has moved him up the depth chart. Even if it's
just for getting the guys fired up some, I think Orth's efforts are getting
him noticed by The Ole Ball Coach.
